The objective of this proposal is to determine the effects of footwear stiffness on a large
cohort of high school football players during a football season. The investigators expect
that functional athlete groups will be developed, based on subject specific assessments
(biomechanical, morphological, performance, comfort), and lead to important translational
findings that may impact footwear modification and recommendation to a population of
American football players. Two standard cleats will be randomized and provided during a
season of high school football. Ratings of comfort, performance, and injury will be
collected throughout the season.
